Actor Shivaji’s comments on actresses’ dressing sense at the pre-release event of Dandora have sparked intense discussion online. His remarks quickly went viral, drawing mixed reactions across social media platforms.
Views on Dressing Sense and Tradition
During the event, Shivaji first appreciated the anchor’s attire and later shared his thoughts on how actresses present themselves in public. He stated that beauty appears most graceful in traditional outfits, especially sarees and modest clothing. According to him, excessive exposure in the name of glamour often reduces respect.
He explained that glamour works only up to a certain limit and that crossing it invites criticism. Shivaji also said that dignity should always accompany beauty in public appearances.
Comments on Women’s Freedom
While addressing women’s freedom, Shivaji described it as a valuable privilege. He urged women not to lose it through careless choices. He added that personal freedom should go hand in hand with responsibility.
Examples from Past and Present Cinema
The actor cited legendary actresses like Savitri and Soundarya as examples of performers remembered for their dignified presence. He also pointed to contemporary actresses such as Rashmika Mandanna, saying they have made a strong impact while maintaining balance in their public image. Shivaji further noted that women who wear traditional attire on global stages often earn wider recognition.
Mixed Reactions Online
However, several netizens objected to the language Shivaji used. Many felt that sharing an opinion was acceptable, but the wording should have been more respectful. Critics accused him of moral policing. At the same time, supporters defended his remarks and praised him for promoting cultural values.
